Great lodge experience

Mattress was so soft we rolled into the middle like an air mattress going flat but other than that it was a great stay. Loved the room, restaurant and location. Had a king room with a slider out to the pool area. Included a tiny private patio. Short walk down to the beach. Will definitely return.

The host who greeted us was friendly and a clear communicator. For the price, the room was fine. Smelled a bit musty, but open windows took care of that.

Great Stay

We have stayed several times at the San Simeon Lodge because of the location and easy care for our small dog. There is a lot of grass out front of rooms and rock areas around property. Great for the dog and view of the ocean. The hotel is set way back off the main street so it is pretty quiet too.
